Abstract

Dilated cardiomyopathy is defined by the presence of left ventricular dilatation and contractile dysfunction in the absence of abnormal loading conditions and severe coronary artery disease. Once dilated cardiomyopathy is discovered, a careful and detailed history with laboratory tests may reveal a potential toxic cause. In this article, we present the case of a patient with suspected toxic dilated cardiomyopathy, and then discuss the common causes and treatment of toxic dilated cardiomyopathy.
